Author Bio

▼▲

EUGENE H. PETERSON is a writer poet and retired pastor. He has authored more than thirty-four books (not including The Message). He is Professor Emeritus of Spiritual Theology at Regent College in Vancouver British Columbia. Eugene also founded Christ Our King Presbyterian Church in Bel Air Maryland where he ministered for twenty-nine years. He lives with his wife Jan in Montana.

This is a nice little Bible paraphrased by Eugene Peterson. It is easy to read, and understand. The print is small, but clear, and the paper is a nice bright white. This would be a great little devotional Bible for daily scripture reading, along with a true translation, like a KING JAMES, NEW AMERICAN STANDARD, NEW LIVING TRANSLATION, or a NEW KING JAMES Bible.

Ask the HOLY SPIRIT to lead you in reading and study of Scripture, HE will open your understanding in a wonderful way.

I bought this product for my daughter-in-law because she is not very good at reading and understanding difficult texts. She was thrilled to have a copy of the Bible that she could read and understand..

It was a treat to sit down and read through scripture as if it were a story book. I think The Message:Remix has earned a permanent place in my daily devotions!

I found the language easy to process and very visual. It added such impact and imagery to my personal bible study time.

I love the compact size and the pleasing wood surface cover. I like how the scripture references were in the side margins instead of within the actual text. This helps the words to flow more like a story.

However I found the pages far too thin and difficult to turn. The words from the back side of the page were distractedly obvious on the page I was reading.

At the beginning of each book of the Bible there is an introductory page. I found these informative and enlightening. Peterson is a Pastor and his pastor-heart is found on every page but especially in the introductions. Each one I read felt like sitting in a pew listening to a great reflection in a sermon. (Hopefully that doesn't sound boring to you - that is not my intention.)

One last comment is that The Message: Remix is intended for a Youth market. From the sections I read I found it useful and applicable to all ages.
